In order to obtain a demodulated signal from RZ-SSB signal, it is important to design a linearizer which cancels the high-order distortions after FM demodulation. Since the NTT's linearizer must include a Hilbert transform, the characteristics of the linearizer are determined by the characteristics of Hilbert transform and it is very complicated to design and realize especially in the low frequency range. In the case of the proposed linearizer, the high-order distortion can be reduced without using any Hilbert transform. Furthemore, unlike the conventional RZ-SSB Demodulator, the proposed linearizer can be realized easily.

In this paper, a predistortion linearizer using series diode is proposed for linearizing the power amplifier in microwave radio systems. The power amplifier should be operated near saturation region to achieve high efficiency. But at this region, amplitude and phase distortions of the amplifier remarkably increase with the increase of input power and cause a significant adjacent channel interference. The linearizer is composed of a series diode with a parallel capacitor, which provides positive amplitude and negative phase deviations with the increasing input power. This type of linearizer using the nonlinearity of diode has improved the C/I(Carrier to Intermodulation Distortion) ratio well. By applying this linearizer to two-tone 880MHz power amplifier, adjacent channel leakage power is improved up to 5dBm.

In this paper, a new type of linearizer using a parallel diode with a bias feed resistance has been studied. It has positive gain and negative phase deviations because of a nonlinearity of the diode and movement of bias point cause by a voltage drop at the bias feed resistance. This predistortion linearizer consists of the little component and miniaturizes circuit design. The characteristics of this linearizer can be easily tuned using input bias voltage. In fabricated linearizer, maximum gain and Phase deviation of the linearizer is 1dB, 21$^{\circ}$ respectively. By applying its characteristics to the power amplifier, it will be linearized power amplifier.

In the design and operation of Flexible Manufacturing Systems (FMSs), it is useful to have a tool with which one can evaluate system's performances under various conditions. As one of such tools, this study chooses the Linearizer algorithm which uses mean value analysis (MVA). Linearizer algorithm is known to be the most accurate one among the MVA based heuristic algorithms yet developed. Though, up until now, the method is solely used to evaluate computer system's performances, this study shows that the Linearizer algorithm can be adapted for FMSs and still produces accurate solutions. Numerical examples for various classes of FMSs are presented and compared with the results from other methods and simulations.

The conventional RZ-SSB demodulator consists of a limiter, FM demodulator and a linearizer. Since the conventional linearizer which cancels the high-order distortions must include Hilbert transformer, the performance of the demodulator are determined by the Hilbert transformer which is very complicated to realize in aeronautical telecommunication. This paper describes a method of designing RZ-SSB demodulator without Hilbert transformer. Since avionics systems are able to eliminate the inherent disadvantages in RZ-SSB, the results of this paper suggest that the RZ-SSB demodulator without Hilbert transformer is suitable for aeronautical telecommunication transceiver systems used in HF band.

A linear power amplifier is particular emphasized on the CDMA system using a linear modulation scheme, because intermodulation distortion which cause adjacent channel interference and co channel interference is mostly generated in a nonlinear power amplifier. In this paper, a new type of linearization technique proposed. It is presented that balanced MESFET predistortion linearizer added. Experimental result are present for Korea PCS(Personal Communication Service) frequency band. The implemented linearizer is applied to a 30dBm class A power amplifier for simulation Performance. The predistortion linearizer improves the 1dB compression point of the HPA about 2dBm, and intermoudulation distortion about 12.5dBc.

In the thesis, we propose a new type of the predistortion linearizer using frequency multiplier The linearizer utilizing the 2nd and 3th harmonic used the individual control of the 3rd and 5th order intermodulation distortion(IMD) component. This structure is composed of wilkinson power combiner for combine and isolation of output signal, 3rd order IMD product controller using doubler and 5th order IMD product controller using tripler. The proposed predistortion linearizer controlled by individual order is obtained for about -16 dBc and 18 dBc of 3rd order and 5th order IMD components, respectively, over the frequency band 870 MHz to 880 MHz at the output power of 34 dBm/tone.

Power amplifier linearity plays a major role in the design of RF communication systems. In this paper, predistortion type linearizer was designed an independently controllable AM/AM and AM/PM predistortion linearizers. This linearizer allows independent adjustment of the AM/AM and AM/PM curves by using two adjustable voltages to compensate the power amplifier non-linearities. The predistortion linearizer was improved the ACPR by 6dB with cdma2000 multi carrier signals. Applying this linearizer to two-tone 880MHz power amplifier, an improvement of adjacent channel leakage power up to 5dBm has been achieved.

In this paper, the LPA(Linear Power Amplifier) using new analog feedforward linearizer for IMT-2000 frequency band(2110MHz∼2170MHz) is proposed and fabricated. The designed analog feedforward linearizer system possessing the characteristics of stable operation for input power variation is simple structure and small size. When two-tones in IMT-2000 frequency band are applied to an amplifier, this LPA have the average output power is about 30W and the IMD value is below about 60dBc without correcting the circuit. In camparision with an amplifier without feedforward system at the same output power, the supposed analog feedforward linear amplifier posseses improved the IMD characteristics of over 23dB.
